Madden NFL 12 Franchise Mode Details, More Coming Monday (IGN)
 

IGN has posted a preview for Franchise Mode in Madden NFL 12.

Quote:
"'Any Given Sunday' isn't just the title of a bad football movie; it's an old adage that you never know what you're going to get when players step out on the field. Anything can happen. Your star QB could sling it five yards past every receiver. Your shaky rookie cornerback might come up clutch with a game-changing interception. Over the course of weeks and seasons, players are defined by their tendencies and begin assuming roles in their teams.

Madden NFL 12 developer Tiburon recognizes this and has made it part of the core upgrade to Franchise mode. It's true, Madden has disappointed with its Franchise mode the past few years, but that looks to be changing this year. The amount of improvements is staggering, but the most significant are the additions of dynamic player performance and player roles."

IGN will be releasing a follow-up blog on Monday, May 16th going more in depth about the changes to Franchise Mode.

Wow, this is a great addition. It's really going to change how I sign free agents and draft rookies...

Dynamic player performance and roles sound very cool, but I hope the effects aren't overdone. For example, Peterson, while "fumble prone" according to the article, has fumbled 21 times in 61 career games, or once every 3 games. I worry that this will be much more often in Madden.

EDIT: The lowest ratio of attempts to fumbles last year was Mike Goodson, who fumbled once every 25 carries. That should be the extreme case for being fumble-prone. Most of the other high-fumble rbs fumbled once every 35-40 attempts.

Looks like Madden has that portrait blending stuff from NFL 2K5 for Rookie portraits, maybe? I have no earthly idea who "Carter Wilson" and "Deangelo Washington" are, otherwise.

Yeah, but the role can be changed from season to season. So if he didnt fumble that much he should get another role.

Good stuff. Finally franchise gets some spice.

Are these the exact same player roles from the previous gen? I didn't spend much time in franchise on the PS2, but I remember reading countless threads on them and I seem to recall all of these roles. Regardless, I'm glad they're back.
